lol a toaster might kill the trips to the kitchen. but i once had an idea of cutting the cdrom in such a way that it could hold cups. i told this idea to my comp. engineer uncle, and he immediately asked
"what will happen if it doesnt stay in there"
"umm dunno"
"it will spill all over your pc"
"oh *goes back to room, so deceived*
